This one is very hard to photography, so we'll just have to know that it's more special in person! It seems to be shining on the collage pieces below, but where the actual shine is- the copper sun- it seems dull... Hmm. (Someday maybe I'll have a good scanner/printer for this work.)
Anyway- my process. I always keep gessoed pages ready to capture excess paint while I'm painting. This page began to immerge as oranges, pinks and purples and blacks, but it was very busy with lots of cool marks... So I decided to cut it for collage. I've been thinking about triangles a lot. First I played with making an all over pattern on the brayed wood panel, but then I decided to use these in a more abstract mountain way. (Go figure- me and mountain lines!)
Even though I still almost over worked it- stop while you're ahead and before you do something you will be bummed about!!!- it came out pretty nicely. ;) I am enjoying sitting down and creating and then finalizing without so much hemming and hawing and putting things on hold. So this challenge seems to be working.
Enjoy your week!
